Weighed in yesterday before my appointment with my eye specialist. I was up 1.8 pounds. I know I did the right things, counted my food, exercised. So I was very disappointed. SO, guess what I did:
I QUIT and I BINGED!!
How that makes any sense. I don't know. I decided I just wanted to eat what I wanted and I had already failed, so why not. So in my Weight Watchers tracker I cheated and just entered the word "Crap" and had it use up all my points. I decided last night (when I felt like crap, let me just say when you are used to eating healthy, bad food makes your tummy hurt) that I was going to move on today and start over. Sounds good, right? Well, I have done everything right today but was still feeling guilty about quitting and overeating yesterday. I saw this picture and knew what I had to do:
So I decided to look up the points of EVERYTHING I ate and drank yesterday and change my tracker. I was surprised at how many points I ate.
No wonder I felt so bad. HOWEVER, even with all the food, I did not surpass my daily and weekly points. I know this is not an excuse for my behavior and I have learned my lesson. But know that I got it all out, I feel much better. My entire journey is not ruined because of one bad day. I had the courage to write these words and admit my failures.
In other news, I got good news at the eye specialist yesterday. Still not improvement in my vision, but there are no active bleeds. Really need to keep a check on my left eye for any additional vision loss. Did not have to have a shot and don't have to go back in 3 months unless I have a problem!!!! YAY!!!!!!
November 21 and 22: I am thankful for second chances and do-overs.
Have a wonderful weekend!!
Keep Losing,
Kari
